The SOLT SB6-2XWH-S emergency washroom pull-cord transmitter is engineered for seamless interoperability across the proprietary SOLT wireless nurse call ecosystem. Communicating over the 400 MHz frequency band using Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) low-power data transmission standards, the unit broadcasts omnidirectional 360-degree RF signals via an integrated built-in PCB antenna. To prevent RF signal conflict and overlapping transmissions across high-density healthcare environments, each device supports individual address programming across more than 16 million discrete bell ID codes.
Compatibility with SOLT Central Display Receivers
The SB6-2XWH-S emergency washroom transmitter integrates directly with SOLT multi-channel nurse station display consoles. When a patient or staff member activates the 1.0-meter pull string or front call button, alerts are immediately decoded and presented on master nurse receivers, showing specific ward and bed identification. Validated central receiving units include:
- SOLT SM3-32PN: Numeric/alphanumeric multi-call nurse station receiver for ward and bed identification.
- SOLT SM3-33PC: Multi-functional central receiver unit supporting concurrent incoming emergency alerts.
- SOLT SM3-61PC: High-capacity display receiver console engineered for centralized monitoring across large wards.
- SOLT SM3-23PC: Compact multi-call display receiver suitable for nursing sub-stations and triage desks.
Central PC Monitoring and Management Software Integration
For facilities requiring digital event logging, audit trails, and computerized workflow dispatch, the SB6-2XWH-S interfaces seamlessly with centralized computer setups. By deploying the SOLT SR5-MPR central PC monitoring receiver, incoming 400 MHz FSK signals from the washroom call and cancel buttons are routed directly into the SOLT PC Manager software suite. This integration enables real-time queue tracking, response-time metrics logging, and historical reporting necessary for clinical governance.
Wearable Staff Pagers and Corridor Indicator Overdoor Lights
To support dynamic nursing workflows where staff are away from stationary consoles, the SB6-2XWH-S transmits call notifications directly to mobile staff receivers and localized visual beacons:
- SOLT Wearable Watch Pagers: Directly triggers alert notifications to on-duty healthcare personnel equipped with SOLT SP5, SP7, or SP9 digital wrist pagers, providing immediate vibrating and visual ward identification.
- SOLT SL6 Corridor Overdoor Indicator Lamps: Compatible with SL6 multi-colour corridor dome lights positioned outside washrooms or patient rooms to provide rapid visual confirmation of active emergency states.
Signal Extension and Structural Penetration
Washroom architecture frequently incorporates ceramic tiling, reinforced concrete partitions, and plumbing infrastructure that can cause RF attenuation. The SB6-2XWH-S is fully compatible with SOLT SR5-BPR RF signal repeaters. Integrating SR5-BPR repeaters eliminates signal dead zones, ensuring dependable transmission between the 2 x CR2032 (they are not included) lithium coin battery-powered transmitter (they are not included) and remote receiving stations across multi-floor healthcare layouts.
